Corn Festival Carnival Helpers

Knights of Columbus DuPontaris Council #845, Morris, IL

Congratulations! We broke the barrier! The five-day total for the 2007 Corn Festival Carnival is approximately $107,000!! That is almost $14,000 more than 2006! Thanks to God for the good weather, and to all of you for the great work!

Knights and friends who work the Corn Festival carnival ticket booth are raising funds for an extremely good cause. Immaculate Conception School is starting, this school year, school-wide participation in the Accelerated Reader program. This program, which is already offered in the public schools in Morris, provides age-appropriate book selections, followed by study guides and quizzes. The readers' quiz scores and reading progress are sent to their teachers for individual feedback.

The first year of the accelerated reader program is being funded by memorial donations for Mrs. Martha (DJ) Balzer, the former librarian of ICS. The Knights of Columbus duPontaris council #845 has decided to use the funds from the Corn Festival Carnival ticket sales to continue funding the accelerated reader program in future years in memory of Mrs. Balzer. Thank you for joining and supporting this cause.
